A gang of criminals devise a scheme to defraud insurance companies by faking heart attacks. Their plot includes a method of altering cardiograms, a relatively new diagnostic tool in 1931, the setting of this story.

Stuart Downing, a young physician, suspects the scheme, but digging out the evidence proves a deadly pursuit. Downing is up against a devious lawyer, unscrupulous doctors, crooked insurance agents and killers.
